SST Exemption for cars ends in June
Last year, the government announced an extension to the car sales and service tax (SST) exemption on all passenger vehicles. As Part of the Malaysian government’s Penjana programme, this extension aims to spur the local economy after the cooling effects of lockdown and runs until the 30th of June 2022. The SST exemption covers all private vehicles, including SUVs and MPVs, but not trucks that are considered commercial vehicles.
8th June 2022
Last month, the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) said it had appealed to the finance ministry to extend the SST exemption, but said it had not received any feedback on the matter.
The Star reports that Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said that an extension of the SST would be beneficial for the automotive industry. He also said that the Finance Ministry will be the one to make the final decision based on financial considerations.
“I will discuss this when I meet (Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz) soon. As the Transport Minister, I feel the exemption scheme has been a boon for businesses and car dealers. They were able to maintain their businesses and did not have to resort to getting rid of workers.
20th June 2022
The government also has announced that SST Exemptions will not be extended.
However, the government has noted the stock issues in the automotive industry caused by chip shortages, war, and the pandemic and allowed the exemption to remain for any cars booked before the deadline and registered before March 2023.
As such, although many car buyers will have to wait for months before receiving their car, they will still enjoy the SST exemption so long as the car was booked before 30th June 2022. It is still unclear if cars that are pre-booked before 30th June 2022 will receive the exemption.
As of now, there are 264,000 undelivered bookings according to the MOF.

List of SST Exemptions
Part of the Malaysian government’s Penjana programme, this SST exemption would cover:
- 100% for CKD (locally assembled) cars
- 50% for CBU (fully imported) cars
Below is a list of the latest prices announced by the different car companies after tax exemption. So, if you missed the opportunity of getting a new car last year, you can still get it at a reduced price until the 30th of June 2022. Though the SST exemption may remain as automotive players have appealed for an extension.
